Connecting people to support
Urgent community response is a multi-disciplinary service which is designed to provide urgent care for Camden residents who are above the age of 18 and are at risk of hospital admission due to physical health deterioration, reduced mobility and/or unexpected carer breakdown. There is a social worker from ASC working alongside the Camden UCR team. The SW typically support patients who are having nursing and/or therapy input at home from UCR team and who would benefit from urgent social care assessment to avoid hospital admission. These patients would initially have Carelink involvement before being referred to the UCR SW.
